Bridgng the Gap: Coll Rdg Bk Alc+myreadglab Brenda Smith 8th edition

Written for the mid to high-level developmental reading course, Bridging the Gap, Eighth Edition by Brenda Smith continues to be the #1 textbook choice of developmental reading educators. Bridging the Gap was the first book to focus on how to read college textbooks. Over the course of several editions, this theme has been broadened by linking textbook readings to recent news in the popular press and adding material on critical thinking and the Internet. A hallmark of the text, the end-of-chapter readings represent varying reading levels to permit individualization of assignments to meet varying student needs. A variety of academic disciplines are represented throughout, including psychology, history, biology, business, allied health, English literature, and more. This affordable Books a la Carte Plus Edition features the exact same content from our traditional textbook in a convenient, notebook-ready loose-leaf format - allowing students to take only what they need to class. As a bonus, the Books a la Carte Plus Edition is accompanied by a full-color, laminated Study Card that's a perfect tool to help students prepare for exams, plus an access code to the MyLab for this course.
